Ampelopsis, commonly known as peppervine[1] or porcelainberry,[1] is a genus of climbing shrubs, in the grape family Vitaceae. The name is derived from the Ancient Greek: ἅμπελος (ampelos), which means "vine".[2] The genus was named in 1803. It is disjunctly distributed in eastern Asia and eastern North America extending to Mexico. Ampelopsis is primarily found in mountainous regions in temperate zones with some species in montane forests at mid-altitudes in subtropical to tropical regions.[3] Ampelopsis glandulosa is a popular garden plant and an invasive weed.
